The 2011 Tommasi Il Sestante Ripasso Superiore has intense aromas of pine and slightly stewed black cherry and blackberry. It is a medium to full bodied, dry, fruity wine; with forward acidity, refined tannins (decant for 15-30 min) and a smooth finish of medium length. Drink with food or sip on its own; drink now – 2018. My impression: NICE, 88-89 pts. Tasted Nov/13.
